Venue Hire in Battersea Power Station, South West London

Control Room B is a truly one-of-a-kind Battersea Power Station venue hire, set within the building’s original 1950s control room. Carefully restored and preserved, the space allows guests to experience the Power Station’s industrial heritage up close, from the original dials and control desks to the switchgear racks that once powered London. Today, these features form a dramatic and cinematic backdrop for events that demand impact.

Occupying its own private mezzanine floor, the venue overlooks one of the two giant turbine halls, offering a sense of scale and drama rarely found in venues for hire in South West London. At the heart of the room sits a striking centrepiece bar – a turbine-inspired radial sculpture that pays tribute to Battersea Power Station’s electric history. Vibrant furniture, stainless steel control desks, and industrial detailing combine to create a space that feels immersive, distinctive, and unforgettable.

Blending British mid-century aesthetics with elements of Brutalism and mechanical design, Control Room B offers a setting that feels both historic and contemporary. Whether you’re planning a brand launch, corporate reception, or private celebration, this is venue hire in Battersea that delivers character, flexibility, and a genuine sense of place.

For events looking to add an interactive element, Control Room B is also home to Escape the Power Cut, an immersive escape room experience set within Battersea Power Station. Designed for groups of up to 24 guests (split into groups of 6), this experience works perfectly as a breakout activity, team-building add-on, or memorable pre- or post-event feature.

Inspired by the Power Station’s electric history, Escape the Power Cut challenges teams to work together under pressure, solving puzzles and completing tasks to restore power before time runs out. It’s an engaging way to energise guests, encourage collaboration, and add a distinctive twist to corporate events, celebrations, and private bookings. Escape the Power Cut can be booked privately or as part of a wider event itinerary, making it ideal for team-building sessions, client entertaining, or groups looking to combine drinks, dining, and immersive experiences all in one location.

If you’re looking to host Escape the Power Cut as a private experience, tickets are £55 per person for a 90-minute session, including two cocktails per guest.
